Writing the Dictionary is actually a very common punishment in many schools I have attended. You're often given an entire section of it to write when you're sent to detention and such.
Ridiculous School Rules
Hey,
In my Middle School, they let us play Beyblade during Lunch on the tables in the School Cafeteria. They've banned Beyblades now because some people started to steal them. I don't like " the athletes who think they're cool ".

Really?! It seems like my school is quite liberal in that sense. I mean, its suitable for boys, but girls get devastated. Punishments include- Push-Ups/Crunches/Sit-Ups. If you get tired with this, run around the school playground 5 times. Or, if the teacher is merciful, simply stand outside the class... We have a remark system. If you do something wrong(misbehavior/late submissions) , you get a remark in your journal. If you get 3 remarks, your parents will be called.
I've never been punished, though!
NO beyblades
THATS JUST CRAZY!
THATS JUST CRAZY!

Our teachers would kill us if we did that. Plus it is not a good idea to do that.
I wish my school would really crack down on the no sagging rule. I mean, YEESH just don't wear pants if you're going to sag. XP

Whoa! You speak as if someone just asked you to go to school without your pants...
Its seriously not THAT big a deal if a certain school doesn't allow beys. Reacting like that to such an obvious rule.... [copy-paste] THATS JUST CRAZY! [/copy-paste]
You're not allowed to wear those bracelets about breast cancer (not going to say the name because some kids on here will giggle). I don't get this rule. I know the name sounds straightforward at first, and people who don't pay attention to the media get the wrong idea, but, if you do some research, the money that you've paid for the bracelets goes to research towards breast cancer. I've heard stories of people that got suspended, but why would you get in trouble for supporting a cause?

My school doesn't even care about what most people wear...
I've seen so many of those bracelets though. I want one, hah.
As long as you're covered for the most part, you're fine!
At lunch, we can't eat in the South halls because of classes.
Some teachers don't mind us doing that at all, as you must go around a corner to reach the halls with classes.
Whenever I'm with my group of friends in the South hall, I say hello to the security guard, and he doesn't even care. He just says no food
But there's this one lady that always forces us back to the middle of the school. She says for us to go the the north halls, as classes aren't going on.
HOWEVER, teachers then say to go to the middle if you're in the North...
THIS IS MADNESS!

6 Men can't have any type of bag during school
What's up with this 'raining men' thing is it because it supports Yaoi. I don't get the bag thing or yelling in Thunder Storms.
Nano, your school's rules are the bomb.
Well, we got this Big Inspection thing, which required us to have our stuff checked. normally, if you have a Phone It's a WW or even a VR. but in here, they give you a chance by surrendering your phone, and you get nothing! not even a warning!(and sometimes, if you're lucky enough, they'll give you plus points on Exams!). You can get it back in dismissal.
yeah, most schools here in the Philippines wont allow you to bring phones. I guess it's because of it's distracting, and the school will get blamed when the students lost their phones.
The next rule is a bit "the Hell-?":
If there is a storm,you will be dismissed after Lunch or recess. main reason that we think of? It's because the food in the canteen will be wasted

1. We can't use electronic devices inside buildings but we can once we're a millimetre outside.
2. We have uniform and we always have to have our shirts tucked in, even on 10000 degree days.
That is all (although I'll probably think of more later on).

No.1 is understandable, but number two? I know you live in australia, must sizzling hot!
Hang on, journal with rules beside me:
1) No running in the corridor (Like I obey that...)
2) If you don't report damage from your locker that someone else done, you get the blame (WTF?)
3) You can't go home without permission. (Really?)
4) If you miss detention, you're suspended. (Why not make them do the detention a different day?)

Smarties: Kids "smoking" them. But the school got on the news!
Rubber bands: People were making paper stingers and shooting people.
I know,I saw these girls in my 4th period,Im like...Wtf? Why are you freaking coughing up that.They're like(girls)h Its just Candy(smarties) Smashed up..
Im like WTF? Get a life,Your not gonna get high on smarties little kids.
Well, those stingers hurt like hell. I got hit by 2 at the same time, and it burned. But completely banning rubber bands is a bit odd, how about warning and then detentions?

Well, it's likely because it would cause a major commotion among students. Some kids got Saturday Detentions for doing just that at my school. Suckers. As for bags, men normally carry backpacks in the way of bags, not purses. So, in that sense, it is kinda clunky, and is a pretty common rule. My school needs to enforce the rules better. They say no junk food. I've never brought any. Yet nobody mentions this one girl who brings fried chicken and potato chips for BREAKFAST TO EAT IN CLASS. Yeah, stupid.
And our school is kinda dumb with the honor roll. I had good grades. I really did. I had the 3.0 GPA I needed, but I got a C in one class that is a requirement for honor roll. (Called A Disciplined Life? Why such a useless class?) I had a 79%. This other girl made honor roll with a 90% in said class, but was suspended twice, so by school rules, she shouldn't have made the list. (Suspensions drop your ADL grade by 30% each.) She gets kicked out literally every day, and the school claims that the teachers cannot hold her responsible for her missing assignments because she got kicked out. Stupid. Frankly, it's because the Assistant Principal hasn't figured out the the word "Assistant" is in her title.

In some classes, you can use your phone for a calculator. You can also listen to music in some classes.
When it comes to cell phones in Texas Schools, the media had definitely scared them straight into cracking down. When I was a junior this was becoming less and less common. Lunch was practically a loophole in guidelines.

Our phones/electronic gadgets get confiscated if we bring them to school... They are returned to you only after the academic year ends... :\
One must have a solid reason to bring a phone to school. AFAIK, only 1 guy in the whole school has permission to bring a phone....
But we still bring phones to school. We have tried everything. Hiding a phone in a folder, hiding it underneath the teacher's table, etc. The most famous, effective (and dangerous) way of hiding our phones is- Keeping it on the outer end of the window sill and closing the window....

My school only allows phones if you catch the bus and/or walk home, so you tell your parents you're coming home or something... I like my school, just hate the bullying issues... Anger management issues always land me in trouble.
